The director of the Industrial Doctorates Plan, Albert Sangrà, participates in the prestigious International Working Conference on Requirements Engineering: Foundation for Software Quality (REFSQ 2023) in Barcelona. The 29th edition of this event, held between April 17 and 20, 2023, focuses on human values in requirements engineering and its importance in the interaction between developers, users and systems.
During its presentation in the Industry section of the REFSQ 2023, Sangrà highlights the importance of collaboration between universities and companies in the training of new professionals. In addition, it highlights the contribution of industrial doctorates to improving the competitiveness of business sectors, especially in information technology projects.
Sangrà explains that industrial doctorates combine academic training with work in companies in different sectors. Through the Industrial Doctorates Plan, doctoral students have the opportunity to develop their theses in a business environment, working on real projects and gaining experience in the professional world. The collaborating companies also obtain benefits, such as access to first-hand knowledge and the possibility of developing innovative projects with the collaboration of doctoral students.
